If the perpendicular bisector of one side of a triangle goes through the opposite vertex, then is the triangle ( sometimes, alwa

ys, or never) isosceles
Mathematics

It is always isosceles because it can be proved as follows:

The perpendicular bisector dissects the triangle into two, and it is the common side.  Then each side of the bisector is 90 degrees, and the bisected to two equal sides, so the two dissected triangles are congruent, hence the original triangle is isosceles.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

If\ old\ scale\ is\ taken:\ Length=45\ ft,\ Width=42\ ft\\\\If\ new\ scale\ is\ taken:\ Length=36\ ft,\ Width=33.6\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Older Scale:

2\ in=3\ ft\\\\\Rightarrow 1\ in=\frac{3}{2}\ ft\\\\Length=30\ in\\\\Length=30\times \frac{3}{2}\ ft\\\\Length=45\ ft\\\\Width=28\ in\\\\width=28\times \frac{3}{2}\ ft\\\\width=42\ ft

New scale:

4\ in=5\ ft\\\\\Rightarrow 1\ in=\frac{5}{4}\ ft\\\\Length=30\ in\\\\Length=30\times \frac{5}{4}\ ft\\\\Length=36\ ft\\\\Width=28\ in\\\\width=28\times \frac{5}{4}\ ft\\\\width=33.6\ ft

If 5x+ 3 = 10x– 17, what is the value of x?<br><br> A. 1<br> B. 2<br> C. 3<br> D. 4<br> E. 5
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we will move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign: 5x + 3 - 10x = -17

Next, we need to collect like terms: -5x = -20

Finally, we will divide both sides of the equation by -5 to give us the answer of x = 4.

A candle shop sells scented candles for $16 each and unscented candles for $10 each.The shop sells 28 candles today and makes $4
Aliun [14]
Lets call s the number of scented candles sold, and u the number of unscented candles sold and write as an equation the info provided in the problem:
16s + 10u = 400
s + u = 28
that is, the first equation synthesize the fact that the amount of unscented candles times its quantity plus the amount of scented candles times its quantity equals $400
and the second equation synthesize the fact that the number of scented and unscented candles add up to 28
Now you just need to solve the system of two linear equations with two unknowns to get the specific value of the scented and unscented candles.
